Abstract
Abstract Streptococcus gallolyticus subspecies gallolyticus (SGSG) is a rare cause of bacteremia in infants. We are reporting a case of bacteremia without endocarditis in a patient affected by tetralogy of Fallot. In the suspect of cerebral involvement, a brain image study might be useful to rule out brain abscesses or embolism. When antibiotic treatment is promptly started, prognosis is good, even with only 2 weeks of effective antibiotic therapy.
